interventions and they want government to be small. but yet they want to give government the authority to determine what a woman does with her body and to tell a doctor what a doctor does in an exam room. to me, if you were constent and you were against abortion, then why don't you provide ready access to birth control? because the same people who don't want a woman to have a right to have access to abortion also do not want to provide birth control services and then ironically, the same people also don't want to provide support to poor women when the child is born. so i think it's a ball of confusion and contradiction and i just can't believe in the 21st century we're still arguing these same issues. >> john: i couldn't agree more. i felt this way for years we don't have an abortion problem in this country. we have an unwanted pregnancy problem. an abortion symptom. >> exactly. you know what it really comes down to, we're really own only limiting access for poor women because women who have money can find a way to resolve a problem pr
